Thank you for a very informative presentation! The teens did a great job!
I really appreciated the Teen Reader Panel Kidlit Distancing Social. The insights the teens shared showed that the market is wide open for new possibilities for YA literature. Thank you so much for providing that valuable information from today’s teen readers. I’m currently taking a course through the Institute of Children’s Literature and plan to write YA fiction and feel very motivated to consider YA nonfiction book ideas as well.
